interesting article 370Z vs BRZ comparo

Akbubba47

Makes no sense unless you are talking about aftermarket parts. The BRZ/FRS top out at 27000 fully loaded whereas the 370z starts near or above 40.

People bash the car and I bet half of the people who have, haven't driven it. The car is a lot of car for the money. Sure, the interior is the nicest, and it's underpowered, BUT, the price reflects that. The handling of the car is remarkable! The car is easy to kick out, but only on demand, as it corners extremely well. Anyone who has driven a Miata, it feels the same with a lot more room. If they come out with a turbo model, there will be no competition in the rwd market.

The Z starts at 40k now???

He said he paid more for his BRZ than his 370, his 370Z was a base *** model, and I think he got it for $26.5 brand new and the BRZ was 27, I'll have him chime in


Also, I drove the FRS recently... Still hate it, I had more fun driving my ex's Yaris than the FRS

On Top Gear they state that a car begins to become fun at the limit of grip. Which is true... But for $25k, it's also gotta be fast... Which it isn't. With a turbo, sure, but I'm pretty happy with my car as it sits, NA...
I still think the FRS/BRZ is ugly and shíttily made...

Please don't bash, I'm not a Nissan fanboy, I'm a Toyota fanboy, but the FRS/BRZ, no... Just no... Keep it away from me... I'd rather drive a Yaris, or my old Avalon, any day of the week

That's quite a statement! More fun in a Yaris vs. FRS ? Could it just be that you prefer a front-wheel drive layout?

I drove a Vios ( sedan version of Yaris) for a few weeks: I found it to be very "Anti-septic" in character and nausea-inducing in fast, tight corners through Coastal canyons. Not very fun.

No, I like the ISF I have and the 370Z plenty.

I took her car out while she was asleep (didn't want to lose my parking space) and damn it was fun driving that POS, didn't brake well, but yeah, I liked driving it a lot, she started to laugh when I told her how fun, but she agreed

Please tell me more about how he got a new Z for 26


Everyone has thier opinions, I can respect that. But now you're pulling numbers out of ur *** lol.

How is 33k close to 40k?

And have you never heard of a car selling for 6k under MSRP? Shít happens

Akbubba47

6 k under msrp on a z!?? The car holds it's value. If anyone here has gotten a brand new Z for over 6k under msrp speak up now.
And not for nothing, after all the other fees that come along with buying a new car, you are closer to the 40 mark anyway. Taxes, title, delivery, etc. but regardless of that, the whole point I was trying to make was that for the money, the Subaru is a good rwd car.

I am going to assume you left out "new" for the money? That is the only thing it has won so far.
